Freyer Awarded Roger Sherman Bronze Medal
The SAR Roger Sherman Bronze Medal was awarded to Compatriot Norman Freyer during the April 2017 General Meeting of the Withlacoochee Chapter of the Sons of the American Revolution. The Roger Sherman Medal was awarded in recognition of his many years of work as the Chapter’s Chaplain, Poster Contest Chairman, Publicity Chairman and the Veterans Christmas Program. This Medal is named after Roger Sherman (April 19, 1721 – July 23, 1793) who was an early American lawyer and politician, as well as a founding father. He served on the Committee of Five that drafted the Declaration of Independence, and was also a representative and senator in the new republic. He was the only person to sign all four great state papers of the U.S.: The Continental Association, the Declaration of Independence, the Articles of Confederation and the Constitution.
